The adhesive tear and shear strength of composites obtained by two alternative methods and the impact strength of steel-polymer and aluminum alloy-polymer joints were evaluated. The tests of five-layered composites for impact bending on samples with "crack-arrester" type V-notch (with the orientation of the notch line across the composite layers) at temperatures of −60, +20, and +200°С were carried out. The analysis of the test results showed that the composites have increased strength at shear loads and resistance to brittle fracture at low climatic and high working temperatures. Fractographic analysis of the fracture surface of composites allowed to determine that the fracture proceeds through adhesive, cohesive, and mixed mechanisms. Cohesive fracture is initiated in the polymer layer by nucleation and crack growth along the fiber-matrix interface, as well as cracking of the basalt fibers.

The mechanical characteristics of PEEK-based layered composites with unidirectional carbon fibers... more The mechanical characteristics of PEEK-based layered composites with unidirectional carbon fibers fabricated under various compression molding conditions have been investigated. It has been shown that it is possible to increase the modulus of elasticity in transverse bending (up to 60 GPa) and bending at maximum load (up to 770 MPa) by changing the molding pressure (using pre-pressing up to 6.5 MPa at intervals). Composites made at a constant pressure of 8 MPa (170 kJ/m 2) have the maximum impact toughness.

Reinforcing materials (unidirectional carbon-fiber (CF) tapes or carbon fabric) and their layout patterns were varied. Stress–strain diagrams after three-point flexural tests were analyzed, and both lateral faces of the fractured specimens and fractured surfaces (obtained by optical and scanning electron microscopy, respectively) were studied. It was shown that the laminated composites possessed the maximum mechanical properties (flexural elastic modulus and strength) in the case of the unidirectional CF (0°/0°) layout. These composites were also not subjected to catastrophic failure during the tests. The PEEK-based composites showed twice the flexural strength of the PI-based ones (0.4 and 0.2 GPa, respectively), while the flexural modulus was four times higher (60 and 15 GPa, correspondently). The reason was associated with different melt flowability of the use...

The advantages of the installation include its design and absence of necessity chlorine-containing raw materials usage. Studies on the use of different silicate raw material such as, for example, granite (silica content-62.5%), milled glass (silica content-72.5%) and silica sand (silica content-98.5%) were conducted, but only results for silica sand sublimation product are presented in frames of this paper. According to the research the technological features of silica nanoparticles synthesis were identified. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were used to characterize the synthesized product. The obtained silica nanoparticles are agglomerated, have spherical shape and primary diameters between 10-30 nm.
